Budget for a group trip to Biarritz
For a weekend, expect around €180-350 / person (no flight). The biggest line item is still accommodation — and that is exactly where travelling as a group changes everything. Biarritz is expensive for hotels in summer (~€120/night solo). A house for 6 drops back to around €38/night/person: nearly €246 saved each over 3 nights.
